Colored Sea Life Drawing

Beautiful colored drawing of creatures of the sea floor. The sea creatures depicted in this vintage sea life drawing were identified but unfortunately the print was too tiny. I didn’t think it really mattered what these sea creatures are called as their beauty speaks for itself. They are from the imagination of the artist William Dickes (1815-1892) and were used to illustrate The Wonders of the Shore from 1873.
